Teen Surrenders in Jackson Square Mall Shooting

0:00It's April 27. This is Canada News Today, driven by AI. A heartbreaking shooting at Jackson Square Mall in Hamilton has left a 16-year-old boy dead and now the 14-year-old suspect wanted for. Second-degree murder has turned himself into police. It happened around 5 p.m. on Friday near a restaurant inside the Downtown Shopping Center after an altercation between the victim Nabil Escafe and two males. Some still unidentified, cops say the suspect had a concealed firearm bigger than a handgun. The community is reeling from this tragedy, especially Nabil's family, who recently moved here from Syria. He leaves behind his parents, a younger brother, and a big support network, and they've asked for privacy while they grieve. Police got a court order to release the suspect's name and photo until Tuesday night, but with his surrender, that's no longer needed. Officers are still digging into any prior connection between the victim and the males involved.

1:00Meanwhile, the mall has reopened after investigators clear the scene, and they're reviewing videos and talking to witnesses. If you saw anything, hit up detectives or crime stoppers to help wrap this up.
